Bio

Shitmat is the stage name of breakcore artist Henry Collins from Brighton, England. His music is primarily based around the Amen break, gabber, plunderphonics, jungle and drum'n'bass. Like other similar breakcore acts, Shitmat is his artist crossover with people not normally associated with breakcore or other electronic music genres, such as his heavy metal fans.

His music, also known as "mashcore", is known for his humorous use of unartistic samples and deliberate use of clichés. Since 2004, Shitmat has released eight of his EPs and six of his studio albums co-owned by Planet Mu and Wrong Music. His sophomore album Full English Breakfest captured the fantasy and atmosphere of the burgeoning breakcore/mashup scene by blending jungle blast beats, gabber influences and ragga vocals. "Agriculture Ardcore", for example, from Full English Breakfest Volume 5, is based on the theme song from the British radio soap opera "The Archers". His first album, Killababylonkutz, is an album that incorporates the clichés of the ragga jungle scene, with all tracks based on the same Ragga sample (Babylon Bwoy by Baby Cham). The Lesser Spotted Burberry EP is a wry homage to the British Chav subculture, referencing brands like Burberry and Argos that are often associated with it. During live performances, Shitmat himself is often seen wearing a Burberry baseball cap, adding to the parody.

He is also one of the co-founders of his Wrong Music, a collective/record label based in Brighton, England.
